Baalek is East and slightly North of Beiruit and near the Syrian border. If this story is true, the IDF is not operating just in southern Lebanon.

I expected this thread to be packed with posts from those FReepers who've been condemning Israel for their wimping out and pulling back, and Bush for trying to stop them from wiping out the Hezbos. Weird how they haven't shown up... ;)

The real sphincter-clincher is that the place is probably crawling with Syrian security, advisors, and maybe even troops.

It would be nice if they found those WMDs Iraq sent over.

Baalbak is virtually the capital of hezzbollah.
Also rich in ancient Roman ruins. If true, it looks like the IDF is going add to the ruins.

This is the Bekaa Valley attack that we've been waiting for since 2003. Israel knows the WMDs are there and that they have to take them out before the inevitable WMD strike on the Israeli population. Maybe huh? Makes sense...

Tell the IDF to start looking for Saddam's WMD!

IIRC, this is where Saddam was rumored to have stashed his WMD's.
